Contemporary Glass Architecture at Liverpool Cultural Quarter

9 October 2019 · Liverpool

Two dark glass volumes frame a covered plaza at Liverpool's cultural quarter, the word 'Explore' spanning the gap between them on a glass canopy. The cantilevered mass on the left pushes out over the forecourt; the receding curtain wall on the right pulls the eye back. Architecture as graphic composition — the signage does what good wayfinding rarely manages: it becomes part of the frame.
